So... Byron Bay...

I love the place, been here 2 weeks now and I'm getting worried I might never leave...

Surf, Sun, Good bars, Good people, no Pandas. - It's ideal!

We're about 300 feet from the sea, which is beautifully warm and often has waves for me to play in.

Things I do most days:
Get up 8ish, wander over to the beach and check out surf.
If hungover, combat it with coffee, if not go for run or swim. Lunch: Subway next door. Afternoon: Surf in beautifully warm water complete with occasional humpback whales and the odd dolphin :)

Evening: Poker in the hostel



Followed by heading to one of the local bars - usually Cheeky Monkeys which stands out for it's dancefloor containing metal tables bolted to the floor that one is supposed to dance on. I just seem to fall off a lot.

Other things we have done:
Saw a Big Thing - namely a prawn
Hired a car and somehow ended up in Surfer's Paradise
... where we were also kicked out of a casino.
Went to Australia's most easterly point as it was just round the corner..

and so on and so on.

The only problem so far is that I am yet to find a job - there doesn't seem to be much going but then again I'm not spending much as thankfully surfing all day is free.

Mehehehe
